05 - Seeds

After spending a fair while looking for information about what to grow and where we found out that this is a lot harder for us to figure out then we could of thought. I am sure just with the last post it is evident we are not skilled in any way, but its fun and we can afford to make mistakes at the moment. If playing in the garden does not stay fun and interesting for me I will drop tools and go back to my games. We are attempting to look this information up but it’s not as fun as trying and I assume people had to try before they wrote books.

This is just the seeds we have planted. We both took half of the plot and one tray each. The trays were there for a back up; we filled them with “Premium Vermiculite” which as you can see from the photo has many industrial uses. It’s by no means organic but unfortunately at this stage we can trust it, sad but true.

On each of our areas we planted what you can see in the photos (at least the stuff that was good to grow at this time) together. We also bought some garlic, split it up and planted the segments. The Eden seeds which basically are a range which offers different varieties of the same seeds. They seemed to fit into our idea of avoiding chemicals but on inspecting the website (http://www.edenseeds.com.au ) it is only their select range which is certified organic. We forgot to take photos of us planting the seeds, but trust me I didn’t spend a half day clearing weeds for nothing.

Here is to hoping that we have some growth soon.
